The annual profits for a company are given in the following table, where x represents the number of years since 2003, and y represents the profit in thousands of dollars.
Write the linear regression equation that represents this set of data, rounding all
coefficients to the nearest tenth. Using this equation, find the projected profit (in
thousands of dollars) for 2012, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

x=0.8898305 is the answer to that equation
